shrubs at the entrance, which were donated by
Hilltop Friendship Circle, the women's group,
as a tribute to the memory of Mr. and Mrs. Hil-
ler. Mrs. Helen Winslow decorated the pulpit
area with Spring flowers. Mr. Wilson has been
with the Meeting over fifty years, so he was
well fitted to speak on the important, yet al-
ways simple and unostentatious services of Mr.
and Mrs. Hiller. He referred to the huge bags
of popcorn, which Mr. Hiller arose early to pop;
his transportation of the pupils, and also trans-
porting and furnishing goodies on such special
occasions as picnics and Christmas parties.
Mrs. Hiller was an accomplished musician,
and she served as organist many years. She
took special pleasure in teaching hymns to
children, and one of these, "In My Heart There
Rings a Melody", was sung by the congregation.
Mr. Hiller1 s favorite Psalm, the 91st, was read,
as well as Proverbs Chapter 31, which Mr. Wil-
son considered appropriate to a woman of Mrs .
Hiller' s attainments. In the congregation were
Mrs. Ruth Martocci, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Hiller, and her husband, Mr. Frank Martocci.

Hiller. She was succeeded by Mrs. Shaw, the
present president. Mrs. Cynthia Power is treas-
urer; Mrs. Edna L. Borden is secretary; and Mrs.

\ VITAL MATTAPOISETT CHOICE
The Zoning Plan which will be brought to a vote
at the special Town Meeting in Mattapoisett on
Monday, June 14th, could mark a turning point
ior the town. In this proposal, the residents of
ihe town are asked to relinquish control over
:heir homes, land and businesses and to place
-.hemselves under detailed regulation of a set of
zoning by-laws.. The change is from personal to
collective rule and as such it is one of major im-
pact. To make such a step, we should be con-
zinced that any and all regulations that the town
nay adopt have been most carefully designed so
:hat our people can live with them with the least
egret. We must be certain that any such laws
are necessary and in the best interest of our
people. This is the most important decision ever

mittee. New developments of homes have been
attractive and of high standards - guided by lo-
cal builders of taste and pride.
Because of the character of the people, the lo-
cation and the charm of the village our town has
attracted new families who want the kind of life
that is here. The town is growing and the growt
promises to accelerate. We are now asked to
consider control of all property. While we shou!
take care to maintain the character and the beaui
of the town, we should not rush ourselves into
any set of regulation which could be a tragic,
unnecessary burden for the future residents.
The wrong laws could do irreparable harm be-
cause, once on the books, they are impossible
to erase and hard to rectify.
On May 17th, the Planning Board held a hear-
ing on the proposed zoning proposition. At that
time, a number of responsible residents attend-
ed to comment and to offer constructive sug-
gestions. It became apparent at that hearing
that the Zoning Plan was a stock item. It was
not designed for this town. It is a general col-
lection of regulations and only the addition of a
map of Mattapoisett made it have any relation
to our town. While many of these laws might be
applied to Mattapoisett, if needed, others pro-
mised nothing but harassment for both home own-

ers and owners of business. Even more serious,
the zoning map seemed to be designed to halt
the growth of Mattapoisett.
The area off North Street which is set aside
for light industry has for its heart the town dump.
Any person familiar with the terrain surrounding
the dump knows that it is a swamp of muck and
water. A more unsuitable spot for industrial
foundations could not be found anywhere in the
town. Under questioning, the spokesman for
the zoning plan admitted to the opinion that
'Mattapoisett is no place for industry". It be-
came clear that the site had been selected to
prohibit industry from building here. It will do
this very effectively. Those who regard light
industry as a desirable source of jobs and tax
income may well wonder at this device to shut
out all possibility of this kind of development.
Many businessmen expressed concern, at the
hearing, with the very limited business zones
as set up to be part of this proposed zoning law.
This is important because it means the difference
between economic development or economic stag-

ness location. It is the worst kind of planning
according to the chairman of the Mattapoisett
Planning Board who stated, "good business de-
velopment does not take place along the high-
way" . However, businessman Burr knows that
successful business locates where the custo-
mers go by - on Route 6 . Planner Burr can advo-
cate the elimination of business on Route 6 in
Mattapoisett. Businessman Burr built where he
can attract the most new customers, on Route
6 in Marion - both at the same time .
In Mattapoisett, business development has
be equally realistic. Like Burr Boatyard, Mat-
tapoisett businessmen have located where the
customers go by. Perhaps boundaries should
now be drawn but we must be certain that they
are adequate, fair and realistic. Business will
go where it is wanted. Most towns welcome
business and go our of their way to attract new
business. Should we adopt a law that will make
Mattapoisett an impossible place for a business
to locate? We can do it. All we have to do is
zone boundaries so tight that land prices will be
out of reach, and prevent business from locating
near the traffic. All we have to do is adopt a lav;
placing dozens of existing businesses in an arti-
ficial residential zone so that they can be con-
trolled and harassed. The zoning laws, as pre-
sented, would cut the existing business district
to less than half its length. At the same time,
it is represented as a plan for the future in a
rapidly growing town. We drive out our business
men at direct peril to the tax rate . Make it hard
for businessmen here and they will find a spot
in the next town - probably on Route 6.
The proposed zoning law would be used as a
weapon in still another sector. Swamp land has
been set aside for light industry in order to keep
industry away. Other swamp land, equally un-
nation for the town. The business zones, as
drawn for this proposed law, set up boundaries
which are unrealistic for our future and penalize
the many business people who have been operat-
ing here for years. The business sections de-
signated on the map are meaningless because:
1, no investigation has been undertaken to de-
termine if the areas marked for business are
available; 2, because the severe limitation of
the business districts would drive land prices
out of reach and 3, because they ignore a basic
rule of commerce. To illustrate this last point,
a new place of business opened this Spring in
Marion. In that town, Burr Boatyard is ideally
located (from the Master Planners viewpoint).
It is off Route 6 and yet is close enough to the
highway for easy access of customers. This
Spring, Burr Boatyard opened a new store which
the proposed zoning law would make difficult or
impossible in Mattapoisett. The new store is
on Route 6. It might be termed an eyesore by
those who are offended by the sight of boats
and it might be a traffic hazard because of the
customers who will enter and leave. The best
thing you can say for it is that is an ideal busi-

complish the same result? Let's be honest. If
the land can't be drained it is unfit for building.
Why hide the truth under a mass of regulations
that will apply not only to swamps but to all
(Rl) areas as well? The people of this town are
intelligent and have successfully managed their
own property for over 100 years. They are not
suddenly mentally incompetent in the year 1965.
When it is necessary to guide and control, we
should do what we have to do but we don't want
to be deceived .

matter is a love for Mattapoisett. This proposed
zoning law was not designed for Mattapoisett but
is a standard form taken off the shelf of some
bureaucrat. It is presented to us with no real
application for our town. We should reject pro-
posed laws which are intended not as a reason-
able guide but which are, in fact, unwarranted,
unnecessary control over our affairs. This parti-
cular law would not regulate growth so much as
it would strangle it. If we should adopt this

zoning plan, we may well create more problems
than we have ever faced before .
Mattapoisett has regulated lot sizes. We hav<
increased this size. We have a trailer regu-
lation. There is now indication that we should
move to increase our regulation of the town's
growth. We should, however, do this with ex-
treme care. There is nothing worse than a bad
set of laws that so poorly fits the needs of the
town that it requires constant application to the
Board of Appeals. Every suggestion, at the zon'
ing hearing, was countered by a standard reply,
"you can take it to the Board of Appeals" . If the
proposed law was a workable one, then the Boar
of Appeals should have a minimum of applica-
tions. Should this zoning plan be made law,
there is every indication that they will be swam}
with appeals .
This zoning proposition,in its present form, is a
thing to be considered with extreme care. It is
the most far reaching regulation ever presented
to this town. If adopted, it could change the
nature of Mattapoisett for all time.
If the town rejects this particular zoning pro-
posal, there will be ample time to design such
zoning as the town needs - specifically for Mat
tapoisett. The Mattapoisett Selectmen could
be requested to form a committee of Mattapoi-
sett residents and businessmen to investigate
our problems and design such tailor made zon-
ing as needed to guide Mattapoisett' s growth -
not stop it. This might be done and presented
to the townspeople at the next regular town
meeting.

LOCAL RESIDENT RECEIVES DEGREE FROM BROWI^
Brown University awarded degrees to 731 senioi
at the university's 197th annual commencement
on Monday, June 7th.
The graduates included 517 men from the Col-
lege and 214 women from Pembroke, Brown's
coordinate college for women.
In keeping with a tradition nearly 200 years
old, the graduating classes marched down Col-
lege Hill with alumni and faculty members for
commencement exercises in the First Baptist
Meeting House, the oldest Baptist church in
America . They then marched back to the Col-
lege Green for the awarding of degrees.
The commencement ceremony marked the end
of a year-long celebration of Brown' s bicen-
tennial. The university, which is the nation's
seventh oldest, was founded in 1764.
A student from the local area who received his
degree was Bruce A. Pehrson of 75 North Street,

MARINE MILITARY ACADEMY
HARLINGEN , TEXAS
The nation' s first private school to be created
on the principles and traditions of the U.S. Ma-
rine Corps- -the Marine Military Academy — will
open for classes at Harlingen in September, 1965
The announcement of opening was made by Gen-
eral Vernon E. Megee, USMC (Ret), Academy
president. Applications for enrollment are being
accepted now, General Megee said.
Situated on a 140-acre campus in this near
tropical Rio Grande Valley City, the Academy
offers high school level education in grades 9
through 1 2 . The curriculum will be that of a
basic college preparatory course with the added
military and physical training that is traditional
to the Marine Corps.
Although the non-profit school has no official
government sponsorhip or connection, it has re-
ceived commendation and endorsement from many
high military and government leaders .
The staff and faculty will be composed pre-
dominately of former Marines with outstanding
academic qualifications. Dr. William D. Mas-
ters, Lt. Colonel, USMC (Ret), presently princi-
pal of Canton, Illinois High School, has been
selected as academic head.
Serving on the Academy's advisory board are
many nationally prominent people . Included
among them are Admiral Arleigh Burke, USN
(Ret) , Former Chief of Naval Operations; Gener-
al Mark Clark, USA (Ret), now president of
The Citadel; General Clifton B. Cates, USMC
(Ret), former commandant of the U. S. Marine
Corps; Brig. General R. E. Shell, USMC (Ret),
president of Virginia Military Institute; General
Robert W. Harper, USAF (Ret); General E. A.

of Culver Military Academy.
The program of academics will be broad enough
to cover a wide spectrum of student abilities
and interests. The objective of the Academy,
as stated by General Megee, is "To prepare
young men for further education in civilian or
military careers" . The Academy "not only will
emphasize academics, but also devote itself
to development of character, leadership and
patriotism", he added.
The school is opening with 27 modern air
conditioned buildings erected at an original
cost of $3,000,000 and adequate to serve a
student body of 900.

cepted. Requests for catalogues, information
